Posters sometimes ask about the exempted development schedule on AAM.
The exempted development schedule in the 2001 regulations can be affected by many things - the below is a listing from section 9 of said regulations.
This came up in discussion elsewhere and I forgot about it and then someone kindly pointed it out to me.
This is not exhaustive and please feel free to add to this.

All advice on AAM is remote from the situation and cannot be relied upon as a defence or support - in and of itself - should legal action be taken.
Competent legal and building professionals should be asked to advise in Real Life with rights to inspect and issue reports on the matters at hand.
